For several years band of masked men
calling themselves White Caps, have been
whipping people in this region for various
real or imagined ofenses. The origin of
the band was caused, about three years

night. and ordered revolution of af',irs.
From that lime on the White Caps, who
take their name from the white masks, be-

rounding counties. Al first the victims
dcseiv their whipping, which was no
doubt administered by reputable men who
wished to have better order in this some

ed TO avenge personal spiles began TO form
themselves into bands and the orgnniza-
ton fell into disrepnte among the people.
Gradually it has grown into n mob that

work has been done on subjects that need
